PHOTO – Views from The Balmoral Hotel, Princes Street

The Balmoral by night

The Balmoral Hotel is a beautiful building that sits at the end of Princes Street. As Edinburgh residents, we’ve not had the need to stay there, but often wondered what the views from the rooms would be like.

We were delighted to be allowed to photograph our surrounds from the Balmoral’s roof today and couldn’t have asked for better weather.

Tourists staying in this hotel are extremely lucky to get views over Edinburgh such as these, as well as the excellent accommodation and service offered at this 5-star hotel.

We’d like to thank the staff at The Balmoral for allowing us this opportunity. You can find The Balmoral on facebook and on twitter.
